There isn't one person that attended that meeting tonight that believes a word Hanlon says. Which is as it should be.......... |

I am sitting hear and I don't know where to begin. I am going to watch the part I missed at 11 tonight. I don't think I have even fully absorbed all that went down tonight. I can't find the words to express my complete disgust with this Administration. Where do we go from here? How do we repair these people and businesses reputations? Most importantly, how the Hell can we get rid of Hanlon now? Our Elected Officials did a good job tonight. McGonagle kept good control of the meeting and didn't let it turn into a circus. |

Massdee, I agree; I don't even know where to start. I have to digest this all a bit before commenting, except to say . . . Hanlon wouldn't know the truth if it walked up and introduced itself to him. An utter, utter disgrace. I have NEVER, EVER, seen anything as appalling as what I witnessed last week and tonight.

did anyone happen to hear when they took a break millie cardello and james keane speaking when the mics were on millie was saying to james that they M&H only have certain information not all so they based there finding on the information that was handed over to them. Then DePerri went up and shut the microphones off. Should of left them on Chuck.. Also, J.Marchese and GTA attorneys are the best I hope and pray that they hit this city hard it will be another King Arthur's law suit they deserve every dime they request from the city.. Time to fire JANICE VETRANO MR. MAYOR SHE DID THIS TO THE CITY AND TELL HER AND JON NORTON TO STOP PARKING IN THE HANDICAP SPOTS WILL YEAH, TAKE BACK WHAT IS LEFT TO THIS CITY. The honesty just flew over to CHELSEA MA |

Citizen, last weeks presentation was bad, they proceeded to destroy reputations. I feel this week was worse, it showed to everyone what a bunch of liars this Administration is. They will do and say anything to get to the conclusion they wanted. They probably shredded the paperwork themselves, before the police confiscated the files and computers. Does anyone really believe that Last Monday night was the first time Dragone saw the audit? I surly don't. One lies, the other swears to it. |

Yes I heard when Millie Cardello was speaking to Keane. Melanson and Heath admitted that they only went on what they were given. For that kind of money why wouldn't they question GTA and Marchese and see what they could produce before dragging them through the mud. At least last night GTA and Marchese may have been vindicated, but they should not have been in that position to begin with. This city owes them full paged ads in all the newspapers apologizing for tarnishing their reputations. Dragone does not think they are owed an apology!!! Get ready Dragone, looks like you will be very busy defending this city in court until the NEW administration takes office, and hopefully their is a new administration very very soon.

I heard a rumor today and was wondering if any can confirm, is Dragone the one who handles all of Everett Supplies insurance and wouldn't there be a conflice of interest in there somewhere if it is true. |

I also heard a rumor today, that FFF was the one behind the audit presentation and was the one to get in touch with the media. Thought I would share. |

Lou, we all had hope for this audit; now we simply have no faith in it. Perhaps if it had been conducted in the way Hanlon led us to believe it would be, things would be different. Hanlon claimed this would be an audit of all city departments; then he claimed that M&H had narrowed the scope of the audit to five departments in particular; now we find out that it was not a department-focused audit at all but an audit driven by some unidentified list of vendors, provided to the auditing firm by the budget director -- something Hanlon denies but which is printed in black and white in the audit report. Now who's lying . . . the auditing firm, with a business reputation to protect, or Hanlon and his cronies, with a vendetta to fulfill? |
